How to Increase your Business’s Awareness

30Nov

If you have a business and you are finding it hard to drum up customers or you have a low footfall in the area that your business is based in, then using print to increase awareness of your business is a cost effective and easy way to get more people noticing who you are and what you have to offer. Today we are going to go through the main ways that businesses can use print to increase awareness.

Business cards are a great way to instill your company’s name and offering every time you interact with someone who can benefit from your company’s services, or knows someone who can. Customers can be bumped into randomly, they can be sought out at events and workshops, or they can be recommended by people that you are already mixing with. One thing all of these customers will ask you for is an easy way to remember you, your company and your information and there is no better way of doing this then through the use of a well designed business card which has all of the essential information on it in a nice, wallet friendly size and style.

Posters are a good way to increase the awareness of your company as they tend to get noticed by large numbers of people. This is especially true if your business and its location is not often noticed, but nearby is an area that gets plenty of exposure. Posters in areas, waiting rooms, on billboards and other advertising stands are an excellent way to blast out your company name and image to as many people as possible.

3.) Leaflets

Leaflets are a really good way to give more information about your company, and really good if you want to inform people about pricing information, opening times and key benefits. The great thing about leaflets is that they can be distributed almost anywhere, meaning you can scatter them around at exhibitions and shows, leave them in other company locations for people to pick up, hand them out on the street, post them through doors or simply have them available for when people request further information. They are also a cost effective way of giving people more information without spending too much money on a lengthy tome about the origins of your company and the story behind the founders!

Postcards are really good, cost effective method for increasing awareness of a company, and in particular for alerting people to deals and discounts that are seasonal or short term. Postcards are relatively cheap to produce and really easy to distribute, and can be used to alert people, make them aware, or stay in touch to manage relationships with existing customers. The great thing about post cards is that they are good for a single, simple message which means that your potential customers have very little to remember, making them a great option for awareness raising.
